In addition, we've nabbed breeders for less than what I've heard. How it's okay to call a breeder out on their faults when they're not members, but once that breeder is a member we can't ask them about their breeding practices? I don't understand that logic.
We keep it away from name-calling and mindless flaming, but there's not a thing wrong with pointed questions. If there's nothing shady about someone's breeding practices, then there's nothing for them to be defensive - or offensive - over, is there? I would imagine that an ethical breeder would be thrilled to come into contact with a group of people so passionate about upholding good breeding practices.
Now . . . as for Red . . . . Red's respected by many, myself included. And she got that respect the hard way. She EARNED it. And yah, she's even made friends, too.
'Nuff said.
